'Rudy' is known as one of the greatest films in sports. Surprisingly, the topic came up from the media to linebacker Scooby Williams in preparation for the Notre Dame game in South Bend for Week 3.
Pretty much every college football player was born after 2000 at this point, so, the excuse of the players today being unfamiliar with the film isn't that surprising. The film came out in 1993, starring Sean Astin playing the underdog pass rusher, Rudy Ruettiger, fighting with every bone in his body to earn a spot on the Notre Dame roster.
